Amid bad polling figures, what does the #COALition stand for?

This morning’s #Newspoll shows the COALition is down to just an 18% primary vote, while #OneNation skyrockets to 27%.

The breakdown of that is 15% to the #Liberal party and just 3% to the #Nationals.

Former frontbencher #JaneHume this morning said that #Ley and #Littleproud are going to need to figure out how to get the opposition out of the “hole” they’re stuck in, and deliver a message that resonates with the public. #auspol

Last Newspoll during the LNP split and it's an absolute shocker

Will Ley survive?

#auspol #NewsPoll has #Labor’s two-party lead at a seemingly robust 55-45, in from 58-42 in the last Newspoll way back in mid-November.

However, the headline-grabber here is that #OneNation is ahead of the #Coalition on the primary vote: Labor is down four to 32%, the Coalition down three to 21%, One Nation are up seven to 22%, and the #Greens are down one to 12%.

The first #Newspoll in 4 weeks finds the #Coalition’s 27% in the previous poll was their worst ever, while #OneNation’s previous record was 13%.

#Labor and the #Greens are both down a point, to 36% & 11% respectively, with Labor’s 2-party lead unchanged at 57-43.

#SussanLey’s approval rating has tumbled 7 points to 25%, while her disapproval is up 9 to 58%. #Albo is at 46% approval & 51% disapproval, both up 1 from last time, & leads 54-27 on preferred prime minister, out from 51-31 #auspol

@joshtaylor.bsky.social @asherwolf.bsky.social This is not exactly news to me. Back when I even bothered paying attention to the #LOLstralian what I mostly looked for was whether the latest #Newspoll was above or below the fold.

Above: the coalition did well, and the poll was therefore deemed “important”.

Below: the coalition did badly, and the poll was therefore deemed “irrelevant”.

Less than 25% of voters believe #inflation would have been lower if the #LNP were in power vs #Labor.

Voters are cynical about the LNP's empty promises.
